Award Winning Detached Family Home in Rockland St Mary

Set within the sought-after village of Rockland St Mary, Alperton is a wonderfully established family home with an abundance of space, a generous plot and enormous potential for the next chapter. Approaching one acre in all, the property combines mature gardens, an outdoor swimming pool, a splendid orchard hidden to the rear and further land to the side, creating a wonderfully private and versatile setting.

The house has been lovingly cared for by the current owners and, while now ready for some modernisation, offers an excellent opportunity to update and personalise without losing the character and proportions that make it such an appealing home. The accommodation is particularly flexible, with the ground floor offering a spacious sitting room, separate dining room, study, kitchen, utility and cloakroom, alongside the impressive double integrated garage. There is also a useful sun room overlooking the garden and pool, providing a lovely connection with the outside.

Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms, together with the family bathroom, make this an ideal layout for family life. For those requiring additional accommodation, the ground floor also provides scope to create bedrooms or guest accommodation adding yet more versatility to this future proof home.

Outside is where Alperton truly comes into its own. A generous frontage provides ample parking and access to the double garage, while the rear garden is an established and private haven. The swimming pool takes centre stage, surrounded by a broad terrace that is perfectly suited to summer entertaining and relaxed family days. Beyond the immediate garden lies a delightful, secluded orchard, while the land extending to the side provides further space and considerable versatility.
